Abstract: Abstract Pedestrian simulation models are used in a multitude of ways. While model development for Social Force models is quite advanced little is known about how to calibrate a Social Force model such that the parameters are reproducing real life data in many situations. This paper tests different calibration methodologies that were previously used in the calibration of Social Force models to give an indication of the usability of such techniques. This is done on simulated data to guarantee the comparability of the different methodologies. The result will give practitioners a guideline in choosing how to use real live data in the calibration process.
